In March/ April 2020, as the pandemic raged, I interviewed a dozen colleagues who’ve carried the torch of sustainability for decades – with great passion, vision and persistence. In the spirit of the moment, I called these the CoVida Conversations. Co-Vida. Life together. To each friend I posed this question: What are you noticing as things come apart that we can anchor in language, ideas, policies so these can take root in the future. I quoted Milton Friedman: “Only a crisis – actual or perceived – produces real change. When that crisis occurs, the actions that are taken depend on the ideas that are lying around. That, I believe, is our basic function: to develop alternatives to existing policies, to keep them alive and available until the politically impossible becomes the politically inevitable.”
